 SH> Why in the hell would someone fire a $5000-plus missile in an attempt

 SH> The accompanying friendly troops are there to take out the enemy

Yea, & suppose you had a big wad of TOW & there wasn't any advancing armor,
only anvancing infantry that greatly out numbered your accompanying
friendly troops by massive margins . . . . ?
 SH> I -know- the manner and method of deploying the TOW.  It is -useless-
 SH> as an anti-personnel weapon.
I don't think you could exactly fire it between someone's feet & have the
shaped charge just cut harmlessly into the mud . . . . . do you?
